I don't get. No ever did "modprobe usb_functions" at least on an mainline
kernel so I don't understand "old modprobe + prameters"
interface. So why again?
I meant adapter modules, like this:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-usb/msg74871.html
please see the msg_init function there. When adapter modules go away,
which is the ultimate goal, any support for them can be removed.
In what I proposed the "support" is the alias in question and the
exported configfs subsystem UFG_SUBSYSTEM.
So in the end we need this because we also have to configure a bunch of
gadgets as compatibility. Starting those commands a shell script from
within the kernel would probably work but I guess most people would
hate me for that.
Okay.
What about we start small and add those things while we go? For now
what means we can't have interfaceXX but everything else should work,
right?
